IMDb Top 250 Highest Number of "10" Votes from 439,275+ Movies, Series, etc.
December 30, 2012
This list is unique as no one has compiled one like it. In IMDb, an "Excellent" title is voted "10". The lower votes are 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2 and 1 which is awful. Some movies with very high sales like Avatar, Titanic, etc. and other films which cannot be found in IMDb Top 250 because their averages are not high enough can be found here because their "10" Votes are high enough.
